Judgment Commentary! | Sword Art Online II (Season 2) | Episodes 5-8

I'm the current commissioner for the SAO reactions and I plan on doing it until the very end (unless of course Arceus decides to stop watching anime for some reason lol). I was actually thinking of asking someone which order they prefer. I was thinking of anime airing order but some people might not be interested to see GGO Alt and want to go straight to s3. What's your take?

aaaaw that is so disappointing.. it ended here :D next episodes will be a blast.. :O also.. it was selfdefense.. when he kill those 2.. :D i mean i dunno how could that feel since i didnt kill anyone :D but i would imagine it shouldnt traumatize you that much.. :D (obviously Sinon is a different case.. she was just a kid.. totally understand her) i dunno.. :D good reaction.. :))

Also what i wanted to ask you, will you continue SAO in the Future even after S2? I once send you a PM in Discord and explained a bit about the SAO Ordinal Scale Movie and that S3 has huge Improvments in Terms of Animation etc and that S3 Adapts the longest Arc yet to be found in the SAO Light Novels Main Story.

Btw, If you want to know all there Ages ( since they dont really mention them in the Anime): During the Phantom Bullet Arc (which plays almost at the End of the Year 2025 and is the Arc with the GGO Tournament) the Characters Ages are: -Kirigaya Kazuto (Kirito): Birthday October 7, he is 17 Years old ( Born in 2008) -Yuuki Asuna: Birthday September 30, she is 18 Years old ( Born in 2007) -Ayano Keiko (Silica ingame): Birthday October 4, she is 15 Years old ( Born in 2010) -Shinozaki Rika (Lisbeth ingame): Birthday May 18, she is 18 Years old ( Born in 2007) -Kirigaya Suguha (Leafa ingame): Birthday April 19, she is 16 Years old ( Born in 2009) -Asada Shino: Birthday August 21, she is 16 Years old ( Born in 2009) -Tsuboi Ryoutarou (ingame Klein): Birthday unknown, but the Author stated that he is 25 and was Born somewhere at the End of 1999-2000 Andrew Gilbert Mills (Ingame Agil): BIrthday unknown, but the Author stated that he is 30 Years old and was Born in 1995. Adaption Notes for Episode 8 ---In the novel, the advertisement for Bullet of Bullets is in huge red font. ---In the novel, Sinon did not ignore Kirito's request for information. ---The scene where Kirito was acting girly in front of other players was not part of the novel. ---The scene where Sinon thought that Kirito was boasting when he showed her the BoB participant list was omitted. ---In the novel, the Satellite Scan map was displayed on the screen of the satellite terminal, but in the anime, this was changed into a hologram. ---Sinon's comment about people seeing Kirito in underwear was omitted.

Adaption Notes for Episode 6 (No Change for EP5 and EP7) ---In the novel, Kirito put Sinon's hand on his chest and then forehead, while in the anime, he only held it. ---The "report sexual harassment" button in Sinon's point of view was not shown. Little interesting Information about the Staff Asuna used in Ep7 in Alfheim Online: The «Crest of Yggdrasil» (translated from Japanese lit. "branch of the summit of the World Tree") is a legendary class Two-handed Staff owned by Asuna in ALfheim Online. She obtained it after they complete the Deep Sea Plunderer Quest ( which was shown in the last 20 Minutes of the SAO OVA that played between Season 1 and 2) and searched for Conclusions if the Quest is finished or not, and after some " Trouble" on Top of the World Tree, Kirito ripped off an Branch of the World Tree where he was holding on. Fearing that the wrath of a god would haunt him, Kirito planned to sell the branch to Agil, but when he looked up the item's stats, he was surprised to find out that the branch was actually a weapon and that its stats were on the level of a legendary-class weapon. Kirito then gave the staff to Asuna, thanking her for always covering them.

Oh, that’s pretty neat

Actually, it's not that you missed the Laughing Coffin symbol in the intro. After the reveal in the anime, they actually changed the opening visual for that!

Oh my, a surprise to be sure but a welcome one! Was kinda expecting this to hit on the last day of the month but I'll take it!
